Chapter 312 This stuff isn't for eating! What empty head would waste so much oil!
Perhaps it was her repentance that moved Heaven, or perhaps it was because her villainous supporting character wouldn't be eliminated too quickly. Li Chuncao really found a stone and smashed it hard against the back of Feng Jingyu's head.
Thick, fresh blood flowed down, and she panicked for a moment. She pushed Feng Jingyu away, then touched the banknotes and savings book in her underwear pocket: "Thank goodness, they weren't stolen!"
Li Chuncao straightened her clothes, glanced at the bicycle for a moment, and decided to ride to the county.
She had never ridden a bicycle before, so she imitated others, sat on the seat, pushed off with her feet, and the bike went off.
It's true that people have different talents; Li Chuncao rode quite well even though it was only her first time.
Although I fell twice, I made it to the county town without incident.
Having found out the location of the police station, he burst into tears as he entered: "Comrade, someone's robbing us, comrade!"
"Lady, you're safe now. Tell us what happened!"
Li Chuncao kept it brief: "I went to the commune to deposit money today, and when I came out, someone was watching me. That person tried to steal my passbook!"
"And then what happened? Did that person succeed? How much money did you lose?"
"No, I injured him. Comrade, I won't go to jail, will I?"
"No, no, you were acting in self-defense."
"I rode his bicycle over to call the police!"
"It's okay, just tell me where the robber is and what he looks like. Once we catch him, you can leave!"
"Comrade, may I go to the credit union?"
"Ok?"
"I still have some money..."
"Why weren't they stored together at the commune?"
"There were too many. The commune was close to the production team, and we were afraid that acquaintances would see us, and the news would spread like wildfire. Who would have thought that we would still be targeted by bad guys?"
The police officer became serious: "How many do you have?"
"Two, two thousand yuan!"
"How could you, a rural commune member, have so much money?"
"It was earned by my man. He even lost his life trying to make money!" Li Chuncao lowered her head, afraid that people would see through her guilt.
The police officer didn't investigate further; after registering her information, he let her go to the credit union.
People were sent to the scene and found that Feng Jingyu was barely breathing. They quickly took him to the hospital.
He survived after being rescued, but denied all allegations of robbery. He even falsely accused Li Chuncao of stealing his bicycle.
The police officers were not to be underestimated either; they began their interrogation right there in the hospital room.
Under pressure, Feng Jingyu confessed. He said he had a girlfriend who wanted a "three turns and one sound" (a traditional Chinese stringed instrument), but he didn't have the money, so he borrowed a bicycle from the team and went out aimlessly.
Seeing Li Chuncao enter the credit union, he knew she was a fat sheep. He intended to seduce her, but she looked innocent and didn't fall for his tricks at all.
Having no other choice, he could only try to take it by force, but Li Chuncao turned the tables and killed him.
After being proven innocent, Li Chuncao left the police station in tears.
It was already completely dark, and the police officers, worried about her safety, took her to the village entrance.
Li Chuncao thanked him profusely before heading towards the Zhao family's house.
As soon as he entered the door, he was slapped by Zhao Laogen: "What time is it? Where have you been gallivanting around?"
"Father, I didn't!"
After saying that, another slap landed: "I heard from your mother that you were tricked by that little bitch from the Qiao family, which is why you harmed Da Hu?"
Li Chuncao said with tears in her eyes, "I didn't push Da Hu. He's such a big guy, how could I push him into the river? I did receive a letter saying that I should introduce a potential partner to Sister Manman."
But that day, Sister Manman didn't go; instead, Da Hu fell into the water. I thought he... so I went to call for help, but then I found Da Hu's foot tangled in the water plants, and...
Li Chuncao still can't understand why, when she clearly pushed Qiao Manman and saw her being saved by Zhao Dahu, Zhao Dahu died while Qiao Manman's hair and clothes were completely dry.
Every time she thinks about it, it sends chills down her spine. But Qiao Manman gave her brown sugar water when she was at her lowest point and said she forgave her, so Li Chuncao concealed part of the truth.
Old Lady Zhao came out of the house: "Where's the money? Didn't that girl pay Da Hu a thousand yuan?"
Li Chuncao took out a bankbook: "Dad, Mom, I came back so late because I was almost robbed on the way. If I hadn't fought back desperately, this money would be gone."
Old Lady Zhao didn't care what Li Chuncao was like. She opened the bankbook and saw that the account was in her daughter-in-law's name. She instantly flew into a rage: "You little bitch, what do you mean? Trying to take it all for yourself?"
Li Chuncao handed the passbook to the other party: "This is the first time I've deposited money, I have no experience. I originally wanted to deposit it in my mother's name, but the person asked me what my name was, and I subconsciously gave it to him. When I got the passbook, I realized that the name was wrong."
However, the staff said that as long as I had the passbook, I could withdraw the money. I'm young and can't hold onto money, so I'll leave the passbook with my mother for safekeeping.
Old Lady Zhao was finally satisfied and said to Zhao Laogen, "Regardless of whether that girl paid any money or not, she dared to scheme against our Da Hu, so she has to pay the price. Father, you're being unreasonable..."
Hearing the old couple muttering to themselves, Li Chuncao quietly went back into the house.
She hid the other bankbook before picking up Zhao Xiaohu and feeding him.
As night deepened, Meng Peiyu lay on the kang (a heated brick bed) reflecting on her recent experiences, feeling that nothing had gone right. Yet, she had undeniably absorbed a great deal of good fortune.
"System, why do you think this is?"
"Perhaps the host's recent targets have been rather varied, and all low-level? Ordinary people don't have much luck to begin with, and some are even considered unlucky for generations..."
Meng Peiyu: "...Why didn't you remind me sooner?"
"Host, I'm just a controller, not part of your system!"
Meng Peiyu closed her eyes and carefully sensed the energy flowing into her body with the slightest movement of her fingers.
That night, many people slept soundly. For some, however, their lives were changed as a result.
As dawn broke, the first thing Meng Peiyu did upon opening her eyes was to sign in: "System, I want cooked food!"
"Yes, host. Congratulations on receiving ten buckets of soy milk!"
"Congratulations, host, you have obtained one hundred living beads!"
"Congratulations, host! You have obtained ten catties of fried bamboo worms!"
Meng Peiyu “......”
"Enough, enough, stop talking! Just listening to it makes me want to vomit! What's wrong with you these past few days?"
The system is silent.
Meng Peiyu vomited twice and took out the bamboo worms. Looking at those tiny worms, she couldn't hold it in and leaned against the wall to vomit.
When there was nothing left in her stomach, she called Qiao Kangkang over to clean up.
"This is meat, you can take it and eat it!"
"What? Maggots?"
"Ugh... What nonsense are you talking about? This is a bamboo worm, a stick insect!"
Qiao Kang Kang scratched his head, not understanding what bamboo worms were: "Aren't they all worms?"
"One's in a pit, the other's in bamboo—how can they be the same? Take them away, they make me sick!"
"Oh!" Qiao Kang Kang took the bamboo worms away, but couldn't resist picking one up to taste. He found it quite delicious: "Sister, do you want to try some? It's really tasty!"
"No, no, no!" Meng Peiyu shook her head vigorously. "Don't mention anything about insects to me again!"
"Oh!"
Smelling the sour smell in the room, Meng Peiyu called out to the kitchen, "I'm going out, can you tidy up the house for me?"
"Alright!" After she walked away, Qiao Kangkang ladled out a bowl of bamboo worms for Grandma Qiao: "Grandma, have a taste, it's from my sister!"
"What? Maggots? You can't eat these! What kind of empty head would waste so much oil on them!"
